#WCCEndangeredSpecies WCC Pianists - Dell' Omo Wants Them Gone

This will be a collection of music videos of piano majors from Westminster Choir College.

These are the students that Dell Omo wants off the campus.  He has basically taken action to make them gone already and the faculty and students are united - fighting to keep their major on campus.

This petition opposes the cuts to all the majors but with a specific emphasis on the importance of the piano major and graduate degrees as integral to the success of Westminster Choir College.  Please sign, share, tweet and retweet.
